Superman ice cream is a colorful, three-flavor ice cream typically featuring red, blue, and yellow swirls. The exact flavors can vary by producer, but the traditional and most recognized combination includes:
- Red flavor: Often called Red Pop, based on a strawberry-flavored soda. Some versions use cherry, raspberry, black cherry, or fruit punch flavors for the red portion.
- Blue flavor: Usually Blue Moon, a mysterious and unique flavor with a sweet, fruity taste that is hard to define. It is often described as a mix of almond extract, bubblegum, marshmallows, or citrus fruits. Blue Moon remains a regional mystery with no official recipe.
- Yellow flavor: Commonly lemon, vanilla, or banana. Lemon is frequently used, but some producers substitute vanilla or banana for the yellow portion.
While the colors are consistent, the flavor specifics can differ depending on the ice cream maker, with some versions even using blue raspberry or cotton candy in place of Blue Moon
